My oh my. How the worm turns.

Will JD Vance thank the Ukrainians for their help? Probably not, as that takes a level of maturity far beyond Vance's capacity.

When you're running out of money for contracts - and fools to sign them - you have to change the bait.

More solutions for a front line manpower imbalance. Tied into the drone feed, this system has serious potential.

This Ukrainian robot alone held position for 45 days. It’s called TWW127. Robots don’t bleed. Saving manpower is the top 1 priority of the Ukrainian army. NC13 Commander “Makar”: Strike UGV direction is the newest and least studied. But its potential is the biggest.
quote:

Makar: Our unit destroys command posts, ambushes on logistics routes, targets behind enemy lines daily. A robot held a position for 45 days. Operated with a PlayStation 5 controller. [Oh Lord...] Certain front line sections could soon be held without putting human lives at risk.

Ukrainian soldier: If you've played video games, you already know how to drive it. Driving isn't difficult. Shooting isn't difficult. The hard part is planning the mission, thinking it through, and executing it.

One more month of this and the general mobilization will have to start.

They absolutely do, closely in fact.

A lot of the sky screaming about "the jooz" from people like Candace Owens happens because they mistake government personnel being aware of our collaboration with Israel because they were/are our only reliable ally in a region that has been and will be an issue for us as some kind of loyalty to Judaism

Washington Post (Via MSN so no paywall): Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target US forces, officials say
The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.

Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major U.S. adversary is participating — even indirectly — in the war, according to three officials familiar with the intelligence.

The assistance, which has not been previously reported, signals that the rapidly expanding conflict now features one of America’s chief nuclear-armed competitors with exquisite intelligence capabilities.

Since the war began Saturday, Russia has passed Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including warships and aircraft, said the three officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.

“It does seem like it’s a pretty comprehensive effort,” one of the people said.

No surprise.

Russia has been aiding and abetting our enemies since Patton told them to kiss it.
How anyone believes otherwise makes no sense.

An interesting thread on many Russian war blogger's sudden disaffection with the way life in Russia is going now. TLDR? They're pissed.

"What has Putin ever done for us?" Uh oh.

No wonder the Russian bloggers are crossing the line. They know no one will be able to read it anyway.

Zelensky does it again. This will set the cat on the pigeons.

[Putin looks at this video. Putin looks at the map. Putin realizes he's been lied to.]

Shame. They were such pretty uniforms too...

If you're wondering where TACO can still be TACO in Operation Epstein Fury, here it is. Russia involved in targeting US troops and TACO does nothing but attack reporters for asking about it.

Epstein rules.

Apologies if off topic, but I can’t watch this clip and not hear Special Military Operation coming out of the mouths of Russian leaders.

More on topic, saw reports Russia can now sell oil above the table to India. Not a great development if Russia can openly bring its oil to the table global market at these prices.

Oil prices and relief of sanctions will be temporary and short lived. Not as a big a deal as the need to take down Iran, thus squeezing Russia and China in a big way. Oil loaded a week ago wasn't sold at spot price of today.

The vast majority of oil is sold at a contracted price which may or may not be indexed to spot price or futures prices. Published oil trading prices are widgets which for the most part do not actually exist, but instead are lists of specifications. As an example, Brent does not exist in nature, that oilfield was depleted several years ago and its production platforms are all gone, after all wells plugged and abandoned.
